| so building something in doc that relies on something built in src ends
badly. Preliminary fiddling indicates that it might work to move doc after src
in SUBDIRS, but the reverse (src to before doc) did not.
Per the (now deleted by you) diff, the NEWS.rds needs ../bin/R to be
processed which is constructed only via src/ but now needed in doc/. Bang.
